Promoting JoF and your business
Journey of Flavour material will help to distinguish your business from competitors. If you would like to purchase an end sign, please contact me, they are $75 (incl GST) per sign. Email wendy.beverley@pmhc.nsw.gov.au or phone 6581 8221.

If you run out of brochures, shelf wobblers or stickers, contact me and I will send you more.  There is no cost to you and its another way of distinguishing your business to visitors and residents alike as an elite business.  You will also be promoting Journey of Flavour and business excellence.

JoF Kitchen Challenge
Eight (8) friends decided they would like to get in on the MKR action and are running their own competition.  4 married couples (including myself & hubby Andy) have been cooking up a storm every Sunday night in the hope to take out the $400 up for grabs.  Our focus is on using local produce, great taste sensations and spending time with friends.
